Following the famed Aegean coastline, we discover Ottoman Istanbul, Gallipoli, Troy, ancient Ephesus and Pamukkale, finishing in coastal Marmaris - gateway to the Greek Islands. This 7 day holiday from Istanbul to the Mediterranean sea will give you an insight into the fascinating history, culture and landscapes of western Turkey.
The perfect introduction to Egypt, this tour covers Cairo and the Nile Valley between Aswan and Luxor, starting with the amazing Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza.
From Cairo we take the overnight seater train to Aswan, where we'll take a boat trip to the beautiful island temple of Philae and have the option to visit the huge temples built by Ramses II at Abu Simbel. We'll spend the night in Aswan in an authentic Nubian village.
The next highlight of the tour is a relaxing overnight cruise down the Nile on a traditional felucca sailboat. Our support boat with toilet, shower and kitchen for the crew to prepare your meals will join with you during the day and at night. Sailing on the Nile on a felucca is one of the best ways to see Egypt and it provides a great break between your busy sightseeing. An upgrade to a hotel is available for this night if you'd prefer some more comfort.
After exploring the amazing ancient Pharaonic sites in Luxor, we re-join the overnight train to Cairo. Additional options are then available before you fly home on your final day for a half-day city tour taking in the Egyptian Museum, Citadel and Khan-el-Khalili bazaar, or to learn more about the history of pyramid building at Dashour and Memphis. Extra nights in Cairo and extensions to the Red Sea are also available on request.
Accommodation is at comfortable mid-range hotels including a Nubian style hotel in Aswan and one night on the felucca.
Very well professionally organized vacation tour. Special kudos to the tour guides Eva, Maria & YuHua who put in all the efforts to make us comfortable and well informed.
See the best of France at an easy, enjoyable pace on the 'French Passion' tour—a 13-day journey beginning and ending in Paris. Seniors will appreciate the thoughtful itinerary spanning Rocamadour, Bordeaux, Paris, and eight additional destinations, with accommodations, transportation, and meals all provided. The unique selling point is the variety of regions visited, offering a comprehensive taste of France’s diverse landscapes and heritage.
Very laid back and easy with two days in most places and a good quantity of free time. Fantastic tour director who kept her flock in control. Driver was phenomenal and a pleasure to talk to. As always there is too much to see and remember so picture taking is essential.
Christina organized a fantastic first class itinerary for a 28 day tour of Italy by my wife and me. She was very personable and generous with her time and very knowledgeable of the areas we visited. The trip included incredible private tours with top notch guides and smooth transfers all the way. Any minor glitches were handled promptly and professionally. It was a wonderful experience and we look forward to working with her again in the future.
My husband and I brought our entire family on this vacation to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. Great trip, the best way to see much of Italy in a short time - 8 days. The country, food and people are wonderful in Italy. Our tour guide was great! I highly recommend.

The itinerary was excellent and the reason why I selected this tour. It provides coverage of all regions of the country including cities, coastal/lake regions and historical villages.
There is adequate time provided at all locations, and guide/s are helpful in explaining what to see, where to eat etc.
This would be the best coach I’ve been on with a guided tour company - helpful having power stations next to seats and seats are large and comfortable.
We had a dedicated English guide which was helpful as 95 of the group spoke Spanish and hard to follow what’s happening when it’s in another language Originally I was concerned we would miss out of the detailed information on the tour, so it’s great Europamundo provided this service. The guide Antonio was excellent and took the time to show our small English group various sites and monuments of interest. He was well informed of the history and knowledgeable - at one stage I asked someone ask “what tree is that?” and the answer was given ha Check in and itineraries were also to plan and on schedule. I felt like we could 100 trust our guide during the tour, was super reliable, and always willing to support with any queries. On a number of occasions I chose not to follow the standard itinerary in some locations, and Antonio was helpful in providing info on alternative sights in the area namely Burano and Torcello in Venice. Having a guide who has extensively travelled themselves is extremely helpful to share personal insight on where to visit and local culture.
Even though we did not have Manu as our dedicated guide as he was assigned with the Spanish part of the group, he was extremely helpful and always friendly. I never felt like it was two separate groups travelling on one trip, and the coordination/collaboration between the two guides delivered a seamless journey. The Europamundo orange jacket is actually very helpful in being able to locate the guide at meeting points easily
This is my second Europamundo trip, and the itineraries allow flexibility to spend time seeing the locations via tour and independently. Great they give time in the town centres too at night on some occasions for more meal choices ie not stuck in hotel at 5pm like other tours do.
Overall I would give the trip 10/10...the guide/s, places visited, organisation were all superb...however...three areas of feedback;
My transfer pick up on the first day was an unmarked individual/vehicle who had my name but gave no other details... I was not able to identify by brand association the pick up was with Europamundo and not a random stranger trying to get me into their car. With a previous transfer on a past Europamundo trip, the driver had signage. The driver was lovely though so not a criticism on him.
I was given a room in the Florence hotel 2xnights with a single bed, even though a single supplement was paid. I would assume this covers a double room to pay for the additional charge as part of the tour package.
The dinner meal is Salerno hotel was terrible, almost inedible
Check out in Ergife was a little less friendly than my first experience with them. And there was unnecessary questions from an individual while I was trying to ask directions at the front desk...I don’t know if he was another guide or a staff member but he was asking about Europamundo.
Thanks Europamundo
